Each local authority is required under the climate action legislation to produce climate action plans for five years. Limerick City and County Council is currently preparing its action plan and it will include all the sustainable goals. It is there. We have a planning Bill going through. It is all about a tiered system that flows from the top down. The UN sustainability goals are automatically incorporated into the Limerick city and county plan. Furthermore, they will be included in the climate action plan. The Senator and I spoke earlier and, without giving a commitment, it is a matter I will look at. That is as much as I can give. We will see.
